|
| Main themes |
Dismantling and functional analysis of mechanisms.
Measurements on mechanical parts.
Sketching and computer-aided-drawing
Kinematic analysis
|
| Aims |
Introduce students to the design process in mechanical engineering and the knowledge of mechanisms and assembly processes.
Develops students' capacity to perform functional analysis and implement graphical tools.
|
| Content |
This course is based mainly on a practical and deductive approach. The students start by dismantling and reassembling a complex mechanical system (e.g. an automobile engine), thereby giving for-hands on experience of mechanical components, their interdependence and functional analysis. The students are then required to carry out a thorough investigation of a mechanical subsystem , involving dimensional analysis, functional analysis and component design, followed by an operational analysis and workshop drawings produced by a CAD software.
